Description

Emmanuel College is seeking a new Bursar to enhance and promote the smooth running of the College’s finance, administrative and operational functions, while building upon and enhancing our core values of community and inclusivity.

On a day-to-day basis the Bursar works closely with the Master, the Senior Tutor, the Development Director and staff. As a College Officer and Fellow, the Bursar is responsible for the
management of all staff and non-staff resources. This includes strategic oversight of the college’s finances, facilities, investments and commercial activity, and ensuring the smooth operation of all
non-academic support functions of the college. To deliver this, the Bursar leads the bulk of the colleges staff through 14 Heads of Department. Term-time is always extremely busy and the
Bursar’s presence in college is critical for things to run smoothly.

Emmanuel is a registered charity, with the members of the College Council as its trustees. In addition, we have various statutory duties with respect to Cambridge University.

The Bursar has a general responsibility for all matters affecting the college finances and management of the college estate, properties, and staff. The following roles performed by the
Bursar are particularly significant:

• Taking the lead in formulating policy and strategic planning of the College’s endowment (property and securities), and reporting on its performance to the Governing Body.
• The planning and optimal application of current income (from fees, investments and trusts) and expenditures to support the college’s charitable objectives.
• Strategic leadership and oversight of major building projects.
• Through appointment and subsequent management of all non-academic staff.
• The preparation of budgets and annual accounts, and the arrangement of audits.
• The monitoring of existing and proposed legislation affecting the college, including health and safety, freedom of information, data protection.
• Ensuring the smooth and efficient running of the college’s domestic operations – these range from catering and housekeeping to gardens and maintenance.
• Liaison with University officers in general and with bursars of other colleges in particular.
• Collaboration with the development office on fundraising and seeking future financial support for the college’s ambitions.

It is anticipated the Bursar-elect would start during Lent term 2023.

Further information about the college can be found on the website via the Apply button.

Applications should be sent to the Master by 31 August 2022 and should include a curriculum vitae and covering letter.
